 * Digital literacy** is the ability to effectively and critically navigate, evaluate and create information using a range of digital technologies. It requires one "to recognize and use that power, to manipulate and transform digital media, to distribute pervasively, and to easily adapt them to new forms".[|[][|1]] Digital literacy does not replace traditional forms of literacy, it builds upon the foundation of traditional forms of literacy.[|[][|2]] Digital literacy is the marrying of the two terms digital and literacy, however, it is much more than a combination of the two terms. [|Digital] information is a symbolic representation of data, and [|literacy]refers to the ability to read for knowledge, write coherently, and think critically about the written word.
